What’s the best way to connect with a child who’s upset?

In this moment, Dr Daniel Siegel — a world-leading voice in neuroscience, psychiatry and parenting — outlines a simple but radically effective technique for calming and connecting with your child when they’re experiencing overwhelming emotions like fear and frustration.

Press play to learn: how many brains we actually have (it’s more than you think!), the “upstairs / downstairs” model of the brain, how to connect with a child when they’re in a state of fear, and strategies to build the ladder between your child’s base level emotions and their higher functioning brain.
